Canada, one of the world's most developed and richest countries, faces high child mortality rates and youth suicides

Canada youth suicide rate is alarmingly high, and child well-being is falling behind in global rankings, warns a new UNICEF Canada report. Despite being a wealthy country, Canada ranks near the bottom for adolescent suicide, child mortality, and social skills among children. The report urges action from all levels of government, highlighting the urgent need for mental health care, family support, and early intervention. With one in five children facing bullying and life satisfaction dropping, this eye-opening data calls for serious change.
